Chapter 4: Laurie | Werewolf Romance

Laurel Atwood might be leaving her true self in the elevator, but "Laurie" is all business, especially when it comes to the monumental Ironworks listing. This isn't just another prime riverfront property; it's a vital link to her past, a lifeline for her ailing mother, and a deal that feels like selling a piece of her soul. In this cutthroat city of suits and skyscrapers, every transaction comes with a heavy price. Enter Charles "Chip" Sterling, a developer whose charm is as fake as his hard hat, and whose ambition smells like expensive cologne and pure pathology. He wants the Ironworks, not for its history or potential, but to bulldoze it into another soulless luxury development. Laurel despises him, despises what he represents, yet she desperately needs his money to keep her world from crumbling. This impossible choice forces her to don her most impenetrable mask, but even steel can crack under enough pressure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
